Does OEMS require any information from ambulance services in order for an EMT to be eligible to drive an ambulance?
OEMS requirements for ambulance service written policies under 105 CMR 170.330 which could be interpreted as related to driver training is limited to orientation of all ambulance service employees, duties of transportation and policies relating to delivery of patients to appropriate health care facilities, and use of lights and warning signals. Ambulance services may, if they so choose, set their own policies for driver training requirements, but specific driver training requirements for EMTs or ambulance services have not been set by OEMS. Each ambulance service is required, under 105 CMR 170.285(C), to ensure that its EMTs carry on their person or in their EMS vehicle, a valid motor vehicle operators license.
